Like all health care fields there are many different types of chiropractic care. Most people associate chiropractic care with back pain and symptom relief. Although all chiropractors are able to relieve symptoms, the doctors and staff at Well4Life Centers will search for the true cause of any health condition and design a specific plan of action for each patient.
Relief care is designed to do just what it sounds like; decrease pain. Many chiropractors are very good at doing this, leaving their patient to feel gratitude for the short time the pain has been eased only to find themselves once again suffering in pain. Now the patient will usually return to the wonderful doctor who relieved their pain last time and again will be very appreciative for the care given. This type of chiropractic care has done wonders to promote chiropractic treatment for pain management, but it has also limited the general publics understanding of the true benefits of chiropractic care.
Corrective care is a completely different approach to achieving and maintaining optimal health. A true corrective care chiropractor will evaluate the Central Nervous System (CNS) completely. Corrective care evaluates the person for not only trauma and pathology but more importantly for function. Since our CNS controls every single one of our cells, tissues and organs we need it to function as close to 100% as possible. A corrective care chiropractor will evaluate the curves of the spine, while many relief care chiropractors will focus on a specific vertebrae. This is a huge advantage to the patient because without proper structure there will never be proper function. No single vertebrae functions independent of itself. Corrective care doctors will also give the patient a clear plan of action. Including scheduled re-evaluation and re-testing to measure progress along the road to health.
The true advantage of corrective care is the option to never have to rely on medication to manage illness. Corrective care will build a healthy body and immune system. The education process of your Well4Life Centers will teach you and your family how to achieve the highest level of health through our monthly power workshops designed specifically for our communities health needs.
True corrective care is always evidenced based care and requires x-ray proof of structural changes. The spine has 3 curves from the side view. The curve in the neck should measure 43 degrees to indicate no spinal cord compression (Dr. D. Harrison JMPT.)
Well4Life Doctors practice Corrective Care. They give Specific, Scientific, Chiropractic Adjustments over time and repitition to treat the source...the Central Nervous System.

THE WINSOR AUTOPSIES
Can an Unhealthy Spine Affect Internal Organs?
At the University of Pennsylvania, Dr. Henry Winsor conducted an experiment based on chiropractors claim that by adjusting the vertebrae they can relieve stomach troubles, ulcers, menstrual cramps, thyroid conditions, kidney disease, constipation, heart disease, lung and other diseases. In this experiment he dissected both human and animal cadavers to see if there was any relationship between any diseased internal organs discovered on autopsy and the vertebrae and nerves that went to the organs. Dr. Winsor dissected 75 human and 72 cat cadavers. He found nearly 100% correlation between minor curvatures of the vertebrae and diseases of the internal organs.
Results:
Heart Disease
All 20 cases with heart and pericardium conditions had the upper five thoracic vertebrae misaligned (T1-T5).
Lung Disease
All 26 cases of lung disease has spinal misalignments in the upper thoracic area.
Stomach Disease
All nine cases of stomach disease had spinal misalignment in the mid-thoracic (T5-T9) area.
Liver Disease
All 13 cases of liver disease had misalignments in the mid-thoracic area (T5-T9).
Gallbladder
All five cases with gallstone disease had spinal misalignments in the mid-thoracic area (T5-T9).
Pancreas
All three cases with pancreas disease had spinal misalignments in the mid-thoracic area (T5-T9).
Spleen
All 11 cases with spleen disease had spinal misalignments in the mid-thoracic area (T5-T9).
Kidney
All 17 cases with kidney disease were out of alignment in the lower thoracic area (T10-T12).
Prostate and Bladder Disease
All eight cases with prostate disease had the lumbar vertebrae misaligned.
Uterus
Two cases with uterine conditions had the second lumbar misaligned.
